France’s edgy ONJ ensemble, led by conductor Daniel Yvinec, appears here in a rhythmically charged collaboration with US drummer/ composer John Hollenbeck, taking a sublime and ridiculous look at the ways in which music and movement combine. From a ping-pong ball bouncing across piano wire to miscellaneous objects mistreated by computer software via pygmy music, Gnawa trance and Duke Ellington swing, this will be a head-spinning time trip.
Part of the London Jazz Festival in association with BBC Radio 3
This event will be broadcast in Jazz on 3 - broadcast date tbc.
